Hey Dave
I was hoping that things were going better for you now.
Its a shame that TENS unit does not work for you, I find it useful.I get worried about the Tramadol I have to take. It just adds another problem.
One thing I have found good is the spa pool we recently installed. I does seem to help the pain levels. Maybe due to the relaxing properties.
All the best

You need one of the drugs I mentioned to treat that, as traditional narcotic painkillers will not stop the nerves firing. |
